How was it, how it all started, what have the following years brought to our community? You are invited to an extraordinary space and time travel through the history of the University of Information Technology and Management in Rzeszów. Like in every ordinary chronicle, you can count on the main facts, figures, and events- but this is not the end. In the depths of the University’s archives, we have found VHS tapes, dusty Chronicles, and Jubilee Books. We have collected the most interesting articles from the local press where we can notice the young faces looking at us from the old photographs. The faces of today’s noble lecturers and the faces of those who are no longer with us
